When I was 8, I remember being bored and curious and touching a lot of parents stuff… phones… wallets… legal documents…

Most parents don’t put their stuff in safes…

Like… THE WALLET IS RIGHT THERE… I COULD JUST GRAB IT!

If they had age verification stuff back then… I could’ve just… quickly snap a pic of their ID and just YOLO it…

    IF they find out.

    My mom kept her purse by the door, mostly, not in her bedroom. If age verification had been an issue, I would have sneaked downstairs at night, slipped out her DL, taken a photo, and registered on whatever sites I needed.

    If they sent some sort of verification to her email, I’d just log in, answer it, and delete the email. Of course I know her passwords, I showed her how to do it, and I’m always fixing some dumb thing she did.

    Any kid is going to figure this out faster than me.
